Question
Samuel has 303.02.He buys 2 bicycle reflectors for 28.12.He plans to spend some or all of the money he has left to buy new biking outfits for $55.45 each.
Solution
First, let's calculate the total cost of the items Samuel has already bought:
- The bicycle costs $303.02.
- Each reflector costs 3.53 = $7.06.
- The gloves cost $28.12.
So, the total cost for these items is 7.06 + 338.20.
Samuel started with 560 - 221.80 left.
Each biking outfit costs 221.80 / $55.45 = approximately 4.
Therefore, Samuel can afford to buy 4 biking outfits with the money he has left.
